  • Patent number: 11496286
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein enable data associated with a large plurality of users to be analyzed without compromising the privacy of the user data. In one embodiment, a user can opt-in to allow analysis of clear text of the user's emails. An analysis process can then be performed in which an analysis service receives clear text of an email of a client device; processes the clear text of the email into one or more tokens having one or more tags; enriches one or more tokens in the processed email using data associated with a user of the client device and the one or more tags; and processes the clear text and one or more enriched tokens to generate a data set of one or more feature vectors.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8795046
    Abstract: In another embodiment of the present invention a computer-implemented method for displaying a draw result is provided, comprising: generating a draw result, wherein the draw result indicates at least a first place winner; rendering with a computer a first video presentation for display at a first terminal, wherein the first video presentation comprises first content and an indication of the draw result; rendering with a computer a second video presentation for display at a second terminal, wherein the second video presentation comprises second content and an indication of the draw result, and wherein the first content is distinct from the second content; transmitting the first video presentation to the first terminal; and transmitting the second video presentation to the second terminal.

  • Patent number: 7661093
    Abstract: A method for assessing relative performance of a video interface is disclosed. In the disclosed method, code to be compiled and executed by the video interface includes a plurality of parameters. The parameters are randomized such that a large number of permutations exist for the compiled code. After the compiled code is randomized and compiled it is executed and statistical properties of the video interface, such as frames per second displayed, are determined.

  • Patent number: 7561161
    Abstract: A method and system for quantitatively measuring performance of a video interface is disclosed. The method and system determine an effectives frames per second based upon a measured frames per second that is rendered by the video interface and system resource utilization by the video interface during execution of a benchmark.

  • Publication number: 20080207300
    Abstract: In one embodiment of the present invention a computer-implemented method for displaying a draw result as a race is provided, comprising: generating a draw result, wherein the draw result indicates at least a first place winner; inputting a plurality of animation paths into a computer, wherein each of the plurality of animation paths is associated with a respective one of a plurality of race objects; and rendering an animation with a computer based at least in part upon the input plurality of animation paths and the generated draw result such that the race object to finish first in the animation corresponds to the first place winner of the draw result.
